The Lobby
Welcome! The Lobby by Valandro LLC. is a candy boutique serving the Idaho Falls area. The business will
be incorporated in 2009. The company has two principals, Matthew Rohde from Idaho Falls, and Anthony
Valenta from Idaho Falls, both of whom are veterans in the candy business. The following is our business
plan for what will become Idaho’s premier candy store franchise!
The Concept
Recognizing the lack of a bulk based candy and snack store in Idaho Falls, The Lobby, will capitalize and
corner this market. Through the leveraging of The Lobby's location, Inventory Management Expertise, and
Excellent Customer Service, The Lobby will ensure market dominance and profitability.
Basically, we will take a highly desirable product and place it in a virtually virgin environment. We will then
attract all those who have a sweet tooth, and make sure they leave happy. We build a profitable base that’s
secure and strong, and then we spread across all of Idaho with enough profits and sweets to make Solomon
blush!
The Market
According to census data candy/snack stores fall into the food & Beverage category of specialty food stores.
In all of Idaho there are only 108 registered specialty food stores. There is only one candy store, locally, and
they focus on the production and wholesale of chocolate, they are not a bulk candy retailer. The consumer
price for their candies is around $16.00 to $18.00 per pound.
The Lobby will target two main segments. Spectrum Shopping Center visitors and patrons is the first target.
This segment is over 8 million a year! The major draws for the lobby will be our co-tenants the arcade, the
go-karts, and especially the movie theatre. The Movie theatre sees around 1000 to 3000 guests a day, and
they pay $4.00 for 2 ounces of candy! Great candy, bigger variety, and a far lower price will be our key to
success.
The Local Population within 10 Miles is our second target. The most lucrative targets with in that segment are
the tech college and the high school, both within 3 blocks. To target the rest of the local population The Lobby
will run a radio and print campaign. To focus on the Spectrum visitors we will run a program where we will
hand out our business cards, Not only advertising our business and location, but when they are returned will
be worth a free 1/4 lb of candy. We will hit our co-tenants and their patrons, as well as the high school, and
Tech College
Through these campaigns, world class customer service, efficient management, and a perfect location The
Lobby will be profitable and self sustaining within in 6 months from when the doors open. The total projected
profits by the end of year one are over $100,000. The Net Profits in year 2 and Year 3 are projected at over
$240,000 and that’s with out expansion! If we added even one new store a year following the same
projections we would net over $2 Million in profits by the end of year 5!
In short, the market looks to be very fertile soil, and with only little effort it will give us a very bountiful harvest.
We have the ground, we have the tools, we’re ready to work, - all we need are the seeds!

The Lobby
2. Effective inventory management. The Lobby will have to actively place orders, track and
anticipate customer trends, and effectively display and store all product. The inventory will need to be actively
monitored to maintain a cost ratio of 30 lbs of candy to $100 cost averaged across all candy types.

3.0 Products
The Lobby's product line is rather extensive. Their will be a mix of boxed candies, soda, flavored and
unflavored popcorn, but the majority of the products will be bulk items. Their will be two bulk sections the
main floor will have the main bulk candies this area will focus on gummies and other high profit margin items,
these item will all ring under one sku and be sold by the pound at $11. This will be slightly lower than the
national average of $11.16. There will also be a premium bulk section behind the counter for fine chocolates
and fudge as these item have a significantly smaller profit margin they will be sold in bulk at a higher rate but
also sold at a price per piece cost. The profit margin goals will be roughly 70% and minimums will be 60%.
The Lobby will be primarily targeting the neighboring arcades and the movie theatre patrons. According to
field research the movie theatre alone can see anywhere from 1000 to 3000 guests a day. This focus will
spread throughout the city as our marketing and word of mouth spread, making the entire population of
52000+ a potential customer. The main goal is to attract roughly 200 customers per day. This will give us
enough to become self sufficient and profitable.
The Spectrum shopping center is on one of shopping centers, on one of the busiest streets in Idaho. For that
reason the primary target market will be its patrons as they will be readily accessible and ample. These figure
are based on a cars per day ratio provided by spectrums realtor.
The Second target Market is that of Area Locals within-in 10 miles. These will also be a lucrative source for
customers, but they will not come as easily as shopping center patrons.

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5

The Lobby
With a relatively small advertising budget their will be two main marketing initiatives. One will focus on radio
and screen ads with, pending all copyrights, the popular jingle from the 50's, "lets all go to the lobby."
We will also print business cards and deliver them to local retailers, the two schools, churches, and other
locales that will have our business information on it and also be worth a free 1/4 pound of candy if brought
back to the store. The price of the second program will come directly from the advertising budget. This
method worked extremely well for FAO Schweetz, The candy store managed by Mr. Rohde and Mr. Valenta.
According to census data candy/snack stores fall into the food & Beverage category of specialty food stores.
In all of Idaho there are only 108 registered specialty food stores. Locally, there is only one candy store and
they make and wholesale chocolate, they aren't a bulk retailer.
Among these specialty food stores ones that are lumped in with candy store that are comparable are ice
creameries and health food stores.
The Majority of all candy and snack profits are tied in with Media and Entertainment venues. This being said
there will be three establishments, the arcade, Go-kart Track, and the movie theatre, with in the shopping
center that will turbo charge The Lobby's growth.

The Lobby
Bulk candy purchases are usually made on impulse with a few occasions where they are bought for small
offices and as gifts. Our competition on the impulse is extremely light. Within the shopping center there are
no other candy stores, the arcades and go-karts do not carry any dessert items. There is one Ice cream
parlor which will be our competition especially on hotter days. There will also be competition within the movie
theatre, as they sell concessions. The prices with the theatre are extremely high, so as long as our prices are
low enough that the savings is worth a walk across the parking lot we should do well. You will be able to buy
almost a half pound of candy for the same price as a two ounce box at the movie theatre.
There will also be some competition with large grocery stores for the small office and gifts customers. We
have good indications however that customers wont mind paying a little more for a quality product without the
pain and hassle of the larger stores.
The Lobby uses a strategy of providing a service to the entire market. While we will focus on
our two primary customer segments (Spectrum Visitors and Local Population), we offer a
product that virtually every consumer wants.
We will create an atmosphere that is appealing to families, couples, anyone with a sweet tooth.
The balance of customers will come because they will see this as the "place" where the best
candy is and fun and happy people work.
The store will be merchandised in an exciting, fun atmosphere. Their will be sections for kids,
holiday themes, special occasions, and even a couple tables to sit and relax and enjoy the
atmosphere. A pleasing theme of music will be played throughout the day that promotes a
positive environment.
Strategic Assumptions:
The Lobby has a valuable inventory of strengths that will help it succeed. These Strengths include a
experienced management team, a great location, a quality wholesaler, and a clear vision of the market and it's
needs. Strengths are valuable, but it is also important to realize the weaknesses The Lobby must address.
These Weaknesses include: a reliance on anchor stores and ultimately only providing a luxury not a need.
The Lobby's Strengths will help it capitalize on emerging opportunities. These opportunities include, but are
definitely not limited to, A great location, demographic growth, a highly profitable product, and great
opportunities for future expansion. Threats that The Lobby should be aware of are the loss of a prime
location, and the potential for other local candy competition.
5.1.1 Strengths
Page 7
The Lobby
1. Experienced Management Team. Both Mr. Rohde and Mr. Valenta have managed a million dollar candy
store. They have managed all aspects of a business and have a strong desire to succeed.
2. A Great Location. The location selected for The Lobby is perfect for its proximity to select stores, the
amount of daily traffic, and the quality of the building.
3. A quality wholesale candy supplier. We have secured a wholesaler that has given us a great rates on both
product and shipping.
4. Clear vision of the market and its needs. The Lobby knows what it takes to build a quality candy store.
We know the customers, we know the products, we know how to build the service that will bring the two
together.
5.1.2 Weaknesses
1. We are ultimately providing a luxury not a need. While the over all price to the customers remain low in
reality we are a giant impulse store.
2. Reliance on anchor stores. The store will rely heavily on the draw from other companies, like the movie
theater, to pull customers from. This will last until the company makes a name for itself and is accepted by
the community.
5.1.3 Opportunities
1. The location is absolutely prime for a candy store. The customers drawn in from the anchors combined
with the relative lack of competition is perfect for growth and success of a candy store.
2. Demographically the shopping center and its surrounding community is expected only to grow.
3. The Profit margin on bulk candy sales is amazing. This will mean big profit dollars with very little cost and
overall startup.
4. Future expansion. If we act now we can position the company in such a way that it can branch out and
reach all parts of Idaho.
5.1.4 Threats
1. Losing the best locations due to time delays. If we do not act fast we may lose the only two locations left
in that shopping center, this will lead to a loss in profits.
2. The potential for other concessions stores. With the amount of people who visit or drive by the spectrum
shopping center it shouldn't hurt that much but if another candy store does open it would definitely be felt.

The Lobby
To further corner the market there are several keys that will give us the competitive edge.
• Our location in the community could not be better for our product.
• Our product will compliment the neighboring merchants very nicely.
• Our management team has managed on of the busiest candy stores in the United states, FAO Schweetz
in Las Vegas.
The following sections illuminate the pricing, promotion, and distribution strategies for The Lobby.
The Sales Strategy at The Lobby will be quite simple. The main sales goal is to ensure that, averaged out,
every customer will spend 11 dollars or the price of one pound of regular bulk candy. The store target will be
129 pounds of candy a day. A reasonable number of customers it would take a day to achieve this goal is
around 180-220. That 129 pounds will cost about $400 and will sell for $1419. Following this trend and
successful inventory management and we will achieve the goal of self sustaining and profitable within 3
months.
The estimates and projections were all made based on anticipated customer traffic, and a very low ball
amount at that. In the beginning we expect that, of the approximately 100 visitors that pass or stop by every
hour, we can draw 8 new customers every hour. The Plateau for our business will be around 25 new
customers an hour.
For purposes of projections, we broke down our product offerings into three different categories. Now at first
we anticipate lower levels of traffic. We anticipate selling roughly 61 pounds a day of regular bulk and 12 of
the premium bulk this rate we expect to grow about 17% per month for the first 7 months. After about 7
months we expect a plateau in customer growth about this time is when we will start thinking about
expansion. Without a second location we should expect about 3%-5% growth each year. We can expect
more when we enter a new city like Pocatello or Rexburg. As far as costs go to sell one soda it will cost us
about $0.17 each but we can sell it for $3.50. The regular bulk candy will be purchased through a wholesaler
at an average of 30 pounds for $100.00. Anything to far out that ratio will fall into the premium bulk section, or
we simply wont carry it. Premium Bulk will have a price per piece value as well as a bulk price of $15.00 per
pound. The profit margin will be a minimum of 60% at all times on all items.
The Growth on a monthly basis for The Lobby is high but well within reason. In the beginning we will
anticipate an average of 8 customers every hour averaged out. The Second Month we expect to have 9.4
customers per hour, and the third month we expect 11 customers per hour. When we hit the plateau we will
expect around 25 customers an hour average. The Plateau might come faster than expected but I expect it to
fall around the 300-350 customers a day mark. At that level we should be selling around 240 pounds of
candy a day. The Shopping center sees almost 1000 customers an hour, much more during business hours.
To break even we will need only to capture 1.2% of that business.

Power without purpose is chaos, and the individuals who will keep that purpose and strive for those goals
come from varying background each with their own expertise. The helm will primarily be manned by two
individuals:
Matthew Rohde - As a Business man Matthew has successfully managed several retail operations, as well
as a five star, gold crown resort. He has been trained in every aspect of business, from hiring to firing, from
order to sale to audit. As a scholar he has received his BA in Psychology from the University of Nevada Las
Vegas. More specifically, Matthew has 7 years management experience in retail environments and two years
managing a million dollar candy store.
Anthony Valenta – Anthony has been a manager of retail operations as well, however his mettle was truly
forged with his leadership role in a prominent theme park and its retail shops. He has tempered his customer
service, training, coaching, and mentor skills to hardened steel. In his endeavors he has served countless
thousands of tourists in his home town of Las Vegas. More specifically Anthony Valenta has four years
management experience in retail environments and three years managing a million dollar candy store.
Mr. Rohde, as president, will be responsible for the daily management, sales, and development of the
company. Mr. Valenta will be responsible for inventory management, merchandising, advertising, and brand
image.
Due to a 7 day work week The Lobby will require two extra hourly associates at $7.50 and an assistant
manager at $10.00. the total hours to start will be 40 per week for the assistant, and 32 for each of the hourly
associates. The Salaries for the manager will remain constant for the duration of the year. New raises will
take place on the first of the year. Due to the extensive demand on the managers time the managers salary
will begin the first or the 15th day of the first month after funding is secured, whichever is sooner.

It is assumed that the initial funding loan will be sufficient to finance any monthly cash-flow shortage.
However, it would be advisable to establish a bank relationship as soon as possible. Sales could very well
increase at a much sharper rate than assumed in these conservative projections. Sharper sales will result in a
greater need for funds in support of inventory and payroll. An over-draft line of credit of $5,000-10,000 would
be an excellent cushion to fall back on.
The start-up costs of The Lobby will consist primarily of inventory, equipment, fixtures, and operating costs
enough to last three months from the date of opening. We plan to obtain funding from a private
investor. The prepayment of this initial loan will be replayed in equal monthly payments at a
reasonable interest rate. The investor will also have ownership rights to a portion of the
company in an amount not to exceed 30%.
